Nicholas II traditionally ate cognac with lemon. However, citrus has a pronounced taste that overshadows the taste of an elite drink. Gourmets insist that real cognac should be drunk without a snack in order to fully enjoy its taste and aroma. There is always a golden mean: to have a snack with such a dish that not only does not interrupt, but also emphasizes the taste.

Instructions
Step 1
Pay attention to the cognac plate, which is easy to prepare. Slice different types of cheese and fan them out onto a plate. Place a bowl of hot honey in the middle. The cognac plate is ready to serve.
Step 2
Make a banana snack. Wrap the fruit in foil and cook in the oven (preheat to 180 degrees) for 15-20 minutes. After cooking, slice the banana lengthwise and pour in some brandy. After the fruit has cooled, place it on a fan-shaped plate.
Step 3
A cheese plate will accentuate the taste of the drink. Make three types of cheese: cheddar, roquefort, and camembert. Other types can be used, but this combination is the most successful. Slice thinly and place on a plate. Take one lemon and put it on the cheese, pre-cut into wedges. The appetizer needs to be lightly salted.
Step 4
Another appetizer. Take slices of cheese, dip in warmed honey, sprinkle with nuts on top. This combination gives the dish an unusual and sophisticated taste.
Step 5
Take note of the banana and bacon recipe. Slice the banana lengthwise and fold the walnuts and cinnamon in half. Wrap in bacon and grill for about 20 minutes.
Step 6
It goes well with cognac caramelized lemon. Cut the citrus into chunks, remove the seeds and cook in syrup (water and sugar) for an hour. Dry the finished lemon in the oven (preheated to 150 degrees) for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with cinnamon. You can make an orange in the same way.
